1650pt List - New to Nids

[ninjasquirrelz]

Hey everyone.

I've only just started my tyranid army and have very little experience of 6th ed was wondering what you all think of the following list.

HQ

Flyrant
2xTL Devs

Prime
Deathspitter

Elite

Brood of 3 Zoanthropes

Brood of 3 Hive Guard

Deathleaper

Troop

Termagants x 12
Devourers

Termagants x 12
Devourers

Tervigon

Brood of 4x Warriors
Deathspitters

Heavy

Trygon Prime

These are the units that I've got at the moment. I tend to play with some friends and we usually play 1,5k - 1.75k games and this army fall in that points range. The armies I face most often are Guard, Orks and occasionally SM and Tau.

I've also got a couple other questions. Firstly I haven't assembled my tervigon yet and I wasn't if with my list it would be better to go with CC for getting in my opponents faces or staying back for support instead.

Also is it worth putting toxin sacks on my trygon?

Regards
Ninja

Toxin Sacs is really only worth it if you happen to face MCs or have spare point, I personally wouldn't worry about it. As for the Tervigon, magnetize it and try different loadouts to see which works for you. Or just try a few loadouts before you fully assemble it to see what you like. Crushing Claws are pretty sweet with Smash now, getting you 4-6 s10 attacks on the charge.
